This review is from: GPS Head-Up Vehicle Speed DisplayI got this HUD for my Camry after I almost rear-ended another car on the freeway while looking down at the speedometer. Here's my impression of it. I hope some of you find it helpful!Appearance/Construction - The device is small, light and portable. The plastic case feels sturdy and durable.Installation - The HUD is ready to use right out of the box. Powering up the unit is simple. It plugs into the cigarette lighter and powers on and off with the car. Just be sure to set the display to "MPH" rather the "KPH" (kilometers per hour). The anti-slip mat that comes with the device is very effective. I've been using the device for two weeks, it has never slipped off the pad. The included display film is *very* sticky, so be careful when putting it onto your windshield. Make sure you have plenty of water on the windshield before putting the film on it, so you can slide the film to where you like before allowing it to set. This process takes some skill... I decided ultimately not to use the film, because the device projects a very clear, illuminated, digital readout directly on the glass windshield - even in daylight. Operation - The included user's guide wasn't well-written, but the device is really easy to use. I threw my manual away. If you are one of those people who can't figure out how to use a microwave, the seller has some easy-to-understand instructions under "Product Description" on Amazon's website. When turned on, the unit takes about 30-seconds to get a satellite fix. After it started displaying my car's speed, I found that the displayed speed lagged the car's speedometer by a second or so when accelerating or braking suddenly. Ergonomics - The sticky film (for displaying the HUD on the windshield) is tricky. Again, the digital, illuminated display looks great on the windshield without the film - even in broad daylight. The adjustable "speeding alarm" is awesome. However, the audible alarm is a little on the loud side for me, so I set the warning speed fairly high - about 10 MPH above the legal limit of 65-MPH on California freeways. I am very happy with this neat product. I think a HUD speedometer is a much safer way to check one's speed compared to looking down at the speedometer. After my dad got two speeding tickets recently, I decided to purchase another one as a bday gift....
This review is from: GPS Head-Up Vehicle Speed DisplayFor what it's worth, my expectations were low but took a $130 gamble and was pleasantly surprised. For the money, it's not going to turn your car into KIT from Knight Rider or compare to the OEM HUDs on luxury cars, but for my needs it functions perfectly. I don't need any bells and whistles, just want an easy alternative to the broken speedometer on my classic car. I like the simplicity of the display and found the brightness satisfactory in daylight. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase....
This review is from: GPS Head-Up Vehicle Speed DisplayMy Jeep Wrangler has a black upholstered shroud over the instruments. In direct sunlight it is near impossible to read the speedometer! Installed heads-up unit without screen. I can read display projected on the windshield in all but the brightest sunlight. I will try that a week or two before installing transparent projection that came with it. Will also permanently wire it after I'm sure where I want it. The blue tooth and speed alarms are of no interest to me. I would have preferred a "Plain Jane" model. I hate buttons to push and even more I dislike the "push it once while pushing another button and tugging on your left ear type buttons". This is a good product, I recommend it for anyone who desires to easily watch their speed and has trouble seeing speedometer. I may buy another for wife's car which has major divisions of 10 MPH....
